Differences in mindfulness and other coping outcomes among college students during the COVID-19 pandemic: A multi-modeling approach

Listed in Teesside University Research Data Repository

Young adults are at significant risk for increased substance abuse, worsening mental health issues, and elevated suicidal behaviors.

Description

These risks have increased since the beginning of the COVID -19 pandemic. Self-help interventions (e.g., mindfulness meditation) are available to counteract these negative effects on mental health.

Mindfulness meditation has become popular as a tool for stress reduction and emotional regulation. There are significant health benefits to mindfulness-based interventions, such as increased awareness. This study’s purpose was to gain greater understanding of whether mindfulness is helpful to mental health among young adults during COVID-19.
